Holy smokes, Canadian, I saw on the other thread that you've lost 110 lbs. Congratulations and well done! How much to your goal now?
I'm from the west coast, got banded in Mexico about 3 months ago, lost 50 lbs total but nothing this week and still looking for my sweet spot. I guess I've lost enough that I have almost no restriction at the moment, so I'm back for a fill next week.
And yes, I'm happy about the band.

Hey!
Glad you made it over here!
I think you should start your very own thread too :)
I was banded by Dr. Cobourn, just over 6 months ago. As you can see (from my ticker), I'm at 68lbs gone so far... and 70-something to go. That's not for sure, cause I don't know what weight I really would be happy at, cause I've never been anything less than 200+ lbs.
I am also very happy with my decision. Everythings gone pretty smoothly so far, and even the times that haven't been so great, were still worth it.
What about you?!

I was banded at the Toronto Lap Band Centre on Sept 7 of this year. I am losing weight but I can't tell you how much because I don't have a scale.

Hi guys, hope you're all having a good weekend so far!
I just had to share a little bit of excitement that happened yesterday.
Dan and I went to Walmart after work, cause he wanted to look for some DVD. I wandered off to the clothes section, and grabbed a pair of dress pants, in an experimental size.... and went to try them on, just for the hell of it. Well.... they fit. And what size were they?
*drumroll*
an 18 !!! :omg:
I didn't buy them, of course.... or any pants. I SHOULD, cause I neeeeed some, but I'm holding out. I'm still wearing some that are 26's, 24's and my most recent purchase, the 22's.
Funny thing, as we were walking into Walmart, and I was hiking up my pant for the millionth time that day, I said "UGGGG.... I hate my clothes". And Dan said "Why?" ... and I caught my self saying (with a sigh) "All my pants are too big". I had to laugh (and so did he), cause that's NEVER been a problem before. Who am I to complain? :P I'd rather have my pants falling down more and more every day, than them getting tighter and tighter.
Also... I have ONE belt. It's a crappy belt, it came with some jeans I bought long ago. But it's my one and only belt, and it's been getting alot more use. When I first got it, I had to wear it on the last, or 2nd last notch. (those have a LOT of wear, all stretched out and torn) Then at one point I lost some weight, and was so excited, I made a mark on it cause I could wear it at the 3rd notch, and I wanted to 'mark the occasion'. NOW... I'm on the very last (of 6) notches!!! Woo!
